TIL that movie "trailers" are named thus because they were originally shown *after* the movie, as advertisements for what to watch next.

@thomasfuchs Mojibake for 30 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius, season to taste.

@thomasfuchs I'd even say it's enough to just write a lot. My writing improved so much when I had the nerve to actually write. Make mistakes, re-read my work, do the next one better.

These days all I do is read about writing and I feel my writing has never been worse. No longer that feeling of "this is as good as I'll get it" and more often just "OK, I've spent too much time on this, let's just publish it in this way I don't really like".

The best-kept retro-mac secret is that the following web sites exist:

https://system6.app/
https://system7.app/
https://macos8.app/
https://macos9.app/

@thomasfuchs @zperretta Seems weird though. The first iMac came out long after they had switched to PowerPC. Someone still supported 68k and PPC but no iMacs?

@thomasfuchs Wait what a 68040 iMac? Or is Mastodon mixing up the images?
